As the number of assassins increased, Chu Xuanting's guards also ran over to protect Chu Xuanting, and these guards were all skilled, and it was no problem to deal with these assassins.

The number of assassins was slowly decreasing, and Ye Shuyun was also relieved, her shoulder that was shot through hurt terribly, and she was covering her shoulder and wanted to go back to medicine to take care of the wound.

As soon as Ye Shuyun looked up, he saw that there were assassins quietly approaching Chu Xuanting, and there were fewer and fewer assassins fighting in front of Chu Xuanting.

Looking at the movements of those assassins, Ye Shuyun immediately guessed the motives of those people, but Chu Xuanting was still watching the battle in front of him, and he didn't notice the danger that was gradually approaching behind him.

Chu Xuanting didn't have many guards by his side, so if these two assassins really chased after him, Chu Xuanting would be very dangerous.

Ye Shuyun's brain was suddenly emptied, she stared blankly at the pale and dazzling long sword in the assassin's hand approaching Chu Xuanting, and a thought suddenly crossed her mind: "Chu Xuanting can't die, absolutely not!" As if her body was out of her control, she quickly rushed towards Chu Xuanting.

"Chu Xuanting, be careful!"

With Ye Shuyun's shout, Chu Xuanting was stunned for a moment, and then looked back.

As the Assassin drew closer and closer to them, even the guards reacted, quickly drawing their knives and stabbing them through the Assassin's chest.

Chu Xuanting was safe.

Ye Shuyun stopped and stood there, Chu Xuanting was safe, and she didn't need to rush up.

Suddenly, she felt something cold on her neck, she was stunned for a moment, and Chu Xuanting's expression changed suddenly when she saw this scene.

Just when everyone didn't come to their senses, an assassin suddenly rushed up and put the Tang knife in his hand on Ye Shuyun's neck.

Chu Xuanting's face flashed with a moment of panic, he stared at the assassin hiding behind Ye Shuyun, and said coldly: "Let go of her!" ”

Of course, the assassin did not let go of Ye Shuyun, but also stared at Chu Xuanting, the Tang knife in his hand and Ye Shuyun came to a close fit, but his eyes fell on Chu Xuanting's body: "If you kill yourself, I will let her go immediately, if you want to live, then see with your own eyes how your beloved woman died for you." ”

Chu Xuanting's pupils shrank, and his gaze was firmly fixed on Ye Shuyun, who was coerced by the assassins, he was hesitating and struggling.

But Ye Shuyun was in a hurry.

It's not that she doesn't want to live, she really doesn't want Chu Xuanting to die.

So at the risk of being cut by the assassin's throat, Ye Shuyun shouted at Chu Xuanting: "Don't promise him!" ”

When the assassin heard this, the knife in his hand approached Ye Shuyun's throat again, and Ye Shuyun's white neck was even cut out of blood by the assassin, which looked very shocking.

Staring at Ye Shuyun, the assassin viciously threatened: "If you ask believe it or not, I'll kill you!" ”

After all, Ye Shuyun was still a little afraid of the threat of the assassin, so he obediently closed his mouth and did not speak again.

Chu Xuanting looked at Ye Shuyun, and after some hesitation, he still pulled out the knife in the guard's hand.

Looking at Chu Xuanting's movements, Ye Shuyun's eyes widened, should he really want to exchange one life for another, right?

The corners of the assassin's mouth furled, as if he was smug.

No, you can't let Chu Xuanting die!

Ye Shuyun was in a hurry, and while the assassin was observing Chu Xuanting and didn't notice her much, she raised her elbow and hit the assassin's ribs hard.

The assassin shuddered in pain, the knife fell to the ground without holding it, and when he saw Ye Shuyun wanting to run, he pulled Ye Shuyun by the collar and threw her towards the cliff.

Ye Shuyun is a girl in the end, her weight is relatively light, and Ye Shuyun is like a kite with a broken string, falling straight from the edge of the cliff.

Chu Xuanting shouted anxiously: "Ye Shuyun! ”

The assassin also fell from the edge of the cliff with Ye Shuyun, Chu Xuanting threw himself to the edge of the cliff, watching Ye Shuyun's small body getting farther and farther away from him, struggling to jump down to save Ye Shuyun.

Chu Xuanting's emotions were too intense, and the guards hurriedly hugged Chu Xuanting: "Please mourn Your Majesty, the queen mother has her own natural appearance, no, she won't have an accident." ”

Instead, Chu Xuanting grabbed the guard's collar and glared fiercely at the guard who stopped him from jumping down: "What did you say?" Let me mourn! Such a high cliff, you let her fall alone! What if something does happen to her? Who will give me back my Ye Shuyun! ”

Chu Xuanting's emotions were extremely intense, his eyes were tearing and hissing, and his handsome face was a little hideous.

The guards pursed their lips and remained silent, for them, Chu Xuanting's life and death were more important, and they had to ensure Chu Xuanting's safety.

The sound of the whirring wind echoed on the edge of the cliff, and it seemed that the weather was going to rain, but the guards remained silent and could not answer Chu Xuanting's question.

After a long silence, a guard finally tentatively opened his mouth to dissuade Chu Xuanting.

The guard said: "The subordinates know that Your Majesty's heartache is unbearable, but Your Majesty thinks about it, didn't the queen's previous actions all want Your Majesty to survive?" Your Majesty still has the country, but the queen mother only has Your Majesty, if Your Majesty damages the dragon body for the queen mother, then you are really sorry for the queen mother's hard work. ”

Chu Xuanting choked speechlessly, and did not hiss any further.

He was still kneeling on the edge of the cliff, still staring blankly at the direction in which Ye Shuyun fell.

The cliff was very high, and there were still some leaves growing on the cliff face, and the layers of scattered leaves blocked the view, and he couldn't see Ye Shuyun's condition at all.

Chu Xuanting was a little desperate, but he was desperate and didn't know what to do.

The guards helped Chu Xuanting up: "Your Majesty, go back to the palace." ”

Chu Xuanting was silent for a long time, and said, "You all go down to find the queen, if you want to see people alive or dead, you must find her back for me." ”

The guard arched his hand and immediately responded, "Yes." ”

Chu Xuanting turned around and walked on the mountain road step by step, and the guards looked at his back, feeling very sad for some reason.

After returning to the palace, Chu Xuanting didn't say a word and directly arranged for people to enter the canyon again to look for Ye Shuyun, it was still the same request, if you want to see people alive or dead, you have to see corpses.

Chu Xuanting sat on the dragon chair and was silent for a long time, and then gave an order again.

No one is allowed to disclose the news of Ye Shuyun's disappearance.

Especially when he didn't get Ye Shuyun back.

In the evening, the guards who were sent by Chu Xuanting to enter the canyon to look for Ye Shuyun came back, they walked into the hall with a calm face, and arched their hands at Chu Xuanting: "Your Majesty." ”

Seeing them come in, Chu Xuanting immediately stood up from the dragon chair: "What about Ye Shuyun?" Did you find her? ”

Several guards glanced at each other, and quickly knelt down: "The ministers deserve to die, and they failed to find the queen mother!" ”

Chu Xuanting was stunned for a moment, and ordered again: "Keep looking until you find her." ”

In short, he must find Ye Shuyun.

Chu Xuanting was too stubborn, and the guards had no choice but to answer yes and then retreat.

The night was getting deeper, and thinking of Ye Shuyun who had fallen off the cliff, Chu Xuanting had no intention of reviewing the folds at all.

Chu Xuanting put down the wolf pen in his hand, walked to the window, and quietly looked at the dark night sky outside.

Suddenly, the door of the palace was opened, and the little eunuch broke in in a panic, his face a little ugly: "Your Majesty." ”

Chu Xuanting's thoughts were interrupted, and he looked at the little eunuch with some displeasure: "What's the matter, I'm panicking." ”

The little eunuch knelt on the ground with his head bowed, and shrunk his shoulders to report: "The Queen Mother is here." ”

Hearing the words Queen Mother, Chu Xuanting's brows furrowed again: "Queen Mother? How did she get here? ”

The little eunuch took a deep breath and continued to shrink in: "The Queen Mother heard that something happened to the Queen Mother, and she is coming over to see the Queen Mother." ”

Chu Xuanting was impatient and annoyed: "Didn't you say that the matter of Ye Shuyun's disappearance would not be spread out?" How did the Queen Mother know? ”

But now is obviously not the time to pursue this, so Chu Xuanting didn't blame an innocent little eunuch too much, but hurriedly ordered him: "Why are you still stunned, why don't you hurry up and call that little palace maid out to deal with the queen mother?" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly retreated with his shoulders on his shoulders as if he were about to be amnestied.

It didn't take long for the Queen Mother to walk in.

The Queen Mother looked left and right while walking towards Chu Xuanting, and looked at Chu Xuanting in surprise: "What about Shu Yun, I'll come and see Shu Yun." ”

Shu Yun? He didn't protect Shu Yun well, causing Shu Yun to fall off the cliff.

But of course he couldn't say this, he walked to the Queen Mother's side, helped the Queen Mother to the chair and sat down.

Facing the Queen Mother's puzzled eyes, Chu Xuanting explained stubbornly: "Queen Mother, Shu Yun has been very tired recently, and Erchen asked her to go back to her room to rest, and Erchen knew that you wanted to see her, so he sent someone to call her over." ”

The Queen Mother replied lightly, a little disbelieving: "Oh, is it? ”

Not long after, the door of the palace was pushed open again, and "Ye Shuyun" walked in, walked not far in front of the Queen Mother, and saluted in a proper manner: "Erchen has seen the Queen Mother." ”

The Queen Mother looked at the "Ye Shuyun" in front of her for a while, and beckoned to Ye Shuyun: "Child, come here." ”

"Ye Shuyun" hesitated for a while, and subconsciously looked up at Chu Xuanting, Chu Xuanting nodded, "Ye Shuyun" walked to the Queen Mother's side with small steps.

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand to hold Ye Shuyun's hand, and she could feel Ye Shuyun's hand shrink.

She looked up at Ye Shuyun hesitantly: "What's wrong with you, kid, is it cold?" ”

The Queen Mother asked, Ye Shuyun couldn't help but shiver again, and replied: "Yes, the evening breeze is cold, and the retainer didn't add clothes when he came out, so it's a little cold." ”

The Queen Mother gently patted the back of Ye Shuyun's hand: "So that's the case, it's really hard for you, you came to see my old woman in the middle of the night." ”

Seeing this, Ye Shuyun hurriedly replied: "It's not difficult, it's not difficult, it should be, it should be." ”

Listening to Ye Shuyun's words, the Queen Mother's brows were furrowed deeper and deeper, she touched the hand of Ye Shuyun in front of her, and felt that her palm was a little rough, like a hand that had done work.

But Ye Shuyun's hands are very soft, and Ye Shuyun's demeanor is very casual, how can he be afraid of her?
